You’ll Soon Need 10,000 Views to Host YouTube Ads | Entrepreneur

Want to make money from ads on your YouTube videos? Your channel had better have more than 10,000 views.

Those are the new rules for the YouTube Partner Program (YPP), home to many people who make their livings uploading original videos and attaching advertisements to them.
